Residence Inn by Marriott Chicago Downtown/Loop

Spacious, Modern Comfort in the Heart of the Loop

Modern yet rooted in Chicago history, the Residence Inn by Marriott Chicago Downtown/Loop blends sleek style with the architectural charm of the historic Roanoke Building. Located in the city's vibrant downtown Loop area, this all-suite hotel offers a home-like vibe with full kitchens, roomy living areas, and plenty of space to recharge — perfect for concert-goers who want more than just a place to crash.

Why Concert-goers love it

Just a short walk or quick rideshare from Chicago’s biggest music venues, including the United Center and Millennium Park, this hotel makes show nights stress-free. The 24-hour front desk and late 12:00 PM checkout add flexibility for those late-night returns, and the Loop location means you're close to public transit and nightlife — yet tucked away enough to get a quiet night's sleep after the encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends will love the spacious suites with separate sleeping and seating areas.
Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list concert get a secure, central base.
Couples can turn a show into a weekend getaway with romantic city vibes.
Fans wanting quiet recovery get peace and comfort in well-insulated rooms.
Budget-conscious music fans appreciate the value of free breakfast and full kitchens.

Food and Drink Options

Start your day — even if it's a late one — with the complimentary hot breakfast buffet. While the hotel doesn’t offer on-site dining beyond breakfast, the fully-equipped kitchens in every suite give you the option to whip something up, and there’s a convenience store on-site for late-night snacks. Plus, you're surrounded by Chicago’s rich food scene — from deep-dish pizza to trendy gastropubs, all within walking distance.

Nightlife Options

While there’s no on-site bar or live music, you’re in the right neighborhood. The Loop teems with rooftop lounges, craft cocktail bars, and iconic music spots. Whether you’re pre-gaming before the show or keeping the night going after the final song, you’re steps from the action.

What People Say

Guests consistently rave about the roomy, apartment-style suites, calling them “perfect for longer stays” and “great for groups.” The central location wins praise for being close to transit, restaurants, and major attractions. Visitors also love the friendly staff and the “surprisingly quiet” vibe despite being downtown.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that there’s no on-site bar or restaurant after breakfast, so you’ll need to head out for meals after morning hours. A few travelers wished for more views from the rooms, though most agree the space and amenities more than make up for it.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers looking for space, comfort, and downtown convenience, the Residence Inn by Marriott Chicago Downtown/Loop hits all the right notes.
